Time..., the new 2 CD collection from Toronto blues and soul queen, Shakura S'Aida includes the talented vocal and harmonica work of local blues legend, Harrison Kennedy.
He duets with her on Halfway Blues and also brings his harmonica for a few other tunes. Harrison works well with Shakura's hard rockin' boogie woogie soul sound. She can really belt a song out with a ton of power and feeling. The lady is at home with the slinkiest of jazzy numbers, the funkiest of grooves, and everything else the music throws at her.
There are quite a few other musicians joining in on the fun - including Lance Anderson, Donna Grantis, Conor Gains, and many more.
The CD is available through the Electro-Fi website, and as a download on iTunes and eMusic.
